1 Peter 2:6-8
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
6 Because it is contained in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying a Stone in Zion— a chosen, precious Cornerstone. And the one putting-faith upon Him will never be put-to-shame” [Isa 28:16]. 7 The precious-value then is for you, the ones believing. But for ones not-believing: “The Stone which the ones building rejected, this became the head[a] of the corner” [Ps 118:22] 8 and “a Stone of stumbling and a Rock of [b] falling” [Isa 8:14]— who stumble while[c] disobeying the word, to which indeed they were appointed[d].

New International Version
6 For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,(A)
and the one who trusts in him
will never be put to shame.”[a](B)
7 Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe,(C)
8 and,
They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.(G)
